Well there is the foaf-protocols mailing list

There may be other lists I should introduce this too. But I think in

It helps get people's intuitions lined up. Perhaps you have ideas of

will be going to the Identity Interest group in November to present.

yes. And we have working examples too. We just need more of them and  
more useful ones to get this going.
